[chiglug] May status update and June meeting ideas

[Jim Campbell]

Hi All,

Thanks to those who made it out on Saturday for our continued Ansible and Discourse-related work. We continued to learn and apply Ansible, and are making good progress! I think most everyone has submitted pull requests for their current work, and we'll be merging that in to the main project.

There's still more Ansible work to do, and we discussed having a week-night hack night to continue work on it. No set plans are in place for that, but a coffee shop hack night in the near future seems likely.

We also have a test instance of Discourse up (which will eventually replace this mailing list). You can see it up at https://discourse.chicagolug.org, though I don't think it's ready for use or user registrations yet. It exists as a thing, though. Thanks to Lincoln for getting that situated.

June plans
-------------

Evil Joel is interested in giving a talk on some Android work he's been doing lately, and I had discussed Saturday, June 16th, as a potential date for the next formal meeting. Would that work for people?

Also, if you're interested in giving a talk alongside Joel's talk, let us know what you have in mind.

Thanks, everyone!
